I won’t say much, except that we are a repeat customer for many years. Perfect location with family and kids to hang out in evenings. Newly opened Target at walking distance is good. Just hoping they open up indoor pool and spa soon. Limited breakfast options, typical of most chain hotels nowadays.

A great Holiday Inn with a nice breakfast layout! However, the prices were high, but that’s something the area suffers from on the weekends.
